How to elegantly compare tuples in Swift?

Question

I do have 2 different tuples of type (Double, Double):

let tuple1: (Double, Double) = (1, 2)
let tuple2: (Double, Double) = (3, 4)

I want t

Answer 1

Update

As Martin R states in the comments, tuples with up to six components can now be compared with ==. Tuples with different component counts or different component types are considered to be different types so these cannot be compared, but the code for the simple case I described below is now obsolete.

Try this:

func ==  (tuple1:(T,T),tuple2:(T,T)) -> Bool
{
   return (tuple1.0 == tuple2.0) && (tuple1.1 == tuple2.1)
}

It's exactly the same as yours, but I called it ==. Then things like:

(1, 1) == (1, 1)

are true and

(1, 1) == (1, 2)

are false
